Red Dragon (The Hackers Choice) - Advanced Linux Kernel Logger

This presentation discusses some of the more advanced techniques in writing kernel based keyloggers and presents the release of THC-vlogger 2.1 with new keystroke logging techniques and more features such as centralized logging. THC-vlogger, first presented in Phrack Magazine #59, enables the capability to log keystrokes of all administrator/user's sessions via console, serial port and Telnet/SSH remote sessions, switching logging modes by using magic passwords, stealthily sending logged data to centralized remote server. It's smart mode can automatically detect password prompts to log only sensitive user and password information. This talk will also discusses the recently published tool in PHC's 'fake' phrack #62 dealing in the detection and disabling of Sebek, a host based honey pot monitoring tool of the Honeynet project. The presentation will also discuss the advantages of THC-vlogger 2.1 over Sebek and other similar keylogger tools.
